You do know I was replying to that guy saying that people were accusing PC gamers of being broke? Follow the conversation before trying to get a gotcha and failing miserably.
dispelling the myth that PC is a 'premium' place to play games - Steam's top 10 highest rated games paint a bleak picture for the platform

I know you post so fast you lose track but you made it about money pages ago
Replying to another person complementing what he said. Another failed gotcha.
I didn’t mention the other person comment. I said you “moved the goal post”. Just cause you are still rambling on about it pages later doesn’t mean you didn’t do it.
I didn't, lmao. You suck at this.
Still, this thread isn't about me, is it? So you either back off and stay on topic or GTFO. I won't keep entertaining this pointless discussion. Talk about the subject and not about me.
Can I just do another patented swift_Star response?
Ahh these poor console gamers, having to be stuck with outdated systems for years...
Did I do it right?

It's because you and Oogabooga literally brought money into the equation. At least the OP brought up a point and backed it up with evidence, then you brought up I bUy muH gAyMeS like it's some morally right decision, as if once again, you know my buying habits and then acting like people are broke.
Console game prices are kind of a joke. It's why 5 years later Mario Odyssey is still 60 dollars. You can't buy keys anywhere else and when you do they match physical prices, make it make sense (you can't)
Well that’s Nintendo they have done this for generations. Most other consoles drop prices quickly albeit not as fast as pc stores.
True, but I'm just saying that physical and digital have two completely different competing principles. That same practice spilled over into PC stores despite having zero reason to do so.
Hitman 3 digitally on consoles has been the same price physically and digitally, even though the only thing causing it is that you don't want to piss off Walmart and GameStop
I dunno how else am I playing infamous second son? That game still dropped in price with digital at the same rate
Prices are based in offer vs demand.
That is the reason consoles publishers can keep the price high.
That is how market behaves in any sector.
BTW I truly believes people that buy/play older gamers are exceptions and not the most part of gamers that buy consoles.
You don’t like facts.
And you haven’t been able to deny anything I’ve said. Don’t buy the games then. You were actually given the reasons why games on pc are cheaper. Why are you ignoring this?
Exactly.
Not only have I not paid exact 70 for a game yet on ps5 but many of games I got just cheaper. Rule is to almost never buy in media markt.
There are few smaller retailer and online games shops who (who knows how) usually have new games 5-10usd cheaper than media markt.
Then of course there are used games which is a market that completely does not exist on pc.
So sure, New NEW games might be a bit more expensive than pc (by pc I mean cdkeys since steam is just as expensive) but I have few options to purchase and I "own" the game. I have something. It's not just renting
For example. Ghost of tsushima DC for ps5 is 70usd in media markt. Official Sony retailer here.
And it's 46usd if I get from other place. New in foil just the same.
It's also included in PS extra tier

Hey guys.. this is an excellent heated thread that's bringing a lot of involvement by the community.
HOWEVER - KEEP IT CLEAN! I feel it's borderlining on a slippery slope of insults (which is a no-no on this site).
BE RESPECTFUL while trying to make your point.

These are two different things, not mutually exclusive to one another.
Millions of PC gamers also spent 10/15$ a month on world of Warcraft registration alone... Many also got early access to completely free Indie titles like Cave Story before they got paid console releases.
We also get free games on Epic, etc.
And we can buy full price AAA games, keep playing them for years on our brand new PCs (the first time I played half-life 2 it could barely run at 1280*1080 at almost 60fps... Now a days the same copy can run at 4k licked 60, but it could run at much more fps if I did not cheap out on the monitor).
Why deny these things? I'm not going to buy all games on Steam day one because I have a pretty decent PC so Gabe doesn't think I am cheap.
To be honest I generally look at steam reviews to see if a multiplat game is good, even if I'm buying it for console eg. Ninja Turtles Shredder's Revenge, Alex Kidd Miracle World DX i find it more trust worthy. Also, who cares if you haven't heard of any of those games in the 2022 list.
